M 211 ,i/~~ , t-- ?; to e l `'d THE PENSION 'el{ -- 4 2 The Select Committee appoin7d to in q granted in virtue of l Wm. IV., C. 24, 011. Civil List, and in virtue of 2 and 3 Wm ' ou charged on th e C onso lid ate d Fund, oug o ttoii an having due regard to the just claims of the parties, and to economy in the public expenditure; and who were sin powered to report from time to time, have proceeded in the inquiry committed to them ; and have agreed to this their first Report. In discharge of the duties confided to them by the Howe, your Committee have proceeded to consider the cases of the several persoEs whose names appear on the Pention Litt of his late Majesty. Although your Committee have prosecuted their inquiries with uninterrupted diligence, yet, as it appeared both necessary and expedient to investigate separately turd dis'. tinctly each of the many hundred cases brought under exanti- - nation, it ought not to be a matter of surprise that their in quiry, though considerably advanced, has riot as yet been brought to a close. In the meanwhile, and pending their proceedings, your Committee feel that it would be inexpedient, and many cases that it would be productive of severe nistress, if the pay ments accustomed to be made in the April quarter were super seded until a final Report can be made to the, House. Without in any respect wishing to anticipate what may be their ultimate recommendation, and abstaining altogether from any act that might be construed as a pre-judgment of the ques tions referred to them, your Committee are of opinion that a provision should be wade by Parliament for the sums payable on the sth April, it beittg distinctly understood that, until the whole subject shall have !),,,,en finally disposed of, no re-grants of these pensions shall take pi,ace, and that the whole subject of the pensions is reserved as fully for the deliberation and dec;- sion of Parliament, as if the pa yroent now recommend e d had not been made. 30th March, 1838.

The great celebrity which this essentially pure Spirit has so justly attained, and its adoption by all ranks of society, and con stant use where it has been introduced, especially by the Nobility and the Medical Profession, lead directly to the conclusion, that it will, at no distant period, rival the consumption, if it do not alto gether supersede the use, of Foreign Brandy.

The Directors think it right , in tioneequenss of what passed at the General Meeting in January last, respecting the appropriation of certain Shares, which the holders had neglected to register, ac cording to the provisions of the Aet, to inform the Proprietors that, having liberally met every equitable claim, they feel that the time is now arrived when they can make no further admissions, and that there remain 1,109 unregistered Shares, from Nos. 34,892 to 36,000, the appropriation of which they hare resolved to submit to the Half-yearly General Meeting in July. The Diretors also assure the Proprietors that all their arrange.. ments are progressing in the meet satisfactory manner, and that they are using every exertion to prosecute the work vigorously, but, at the same time, with duo regard to economy and the convenience of the Proprietary : and they take this opportunity of stating that they purpose making a Call of 31. per Share about the middle of May, of which due notice will be given.

Within is such an infinity of comfort that it were impossible to find fault. There is not a convenience suggested by one of the fastidious school that will not be visible here; and those who indulge in the delight of society will not be disappointed if they fondly contem plate the capability to receive at their soirees all the elite of this re spected neighbourhood. '1 he EXTENSIVE PARKLIKE GROUNDS, the SPLENDID WOODLAND SCENERY, are alike rangers to any neighbouring contemporary. The um brageous and romantic walks that ENCOMPASS this BEAUTIFUL PANORAMA should be seen to be properly estimated. Nature has contributed most liberally in completing the scene. There is, within a limited space, hill, and dale, and water to an extent that render the picture quite pet-Feet ; and the walled gardens are very ample, and most prolific in fruit and vegetables. The mansion and gardens and 20 acres of land are on lease to JOSHUA EVANS, Esq., echo has expended a very large sum in improvements, and exhibited in this outlay a taste worthy of imitation.

The LORD CDANCELL OR. at the sitting of the House, deli vered judgment in this case. The appellat.t was the wiusow of a Lieutenant-Colonel Taylor, late of the East India Comp pany's service, who had subscribed to a fund called among the Officers of the Company, " The Bombay Military Fustd," the object of which was to provide, under certain restrictions, pen sions or annuities for the Officers' widows. The question in volved in the appeal was, whether her late husband's estate was bound to make good to her certain deficiencies, however occasioned, in the. payment of that annuity which, by his sub- . scription to that fund, he had intended to secure to her. The matter was then brought by appeal to this House, ald his Lordship thought that the words of the settlement were without restriction. The decree of the Court below was therefore varied, so as to give Mrs. Joseph the full benefit of the annuity originally intended to be secured to her out of the Bombay Fund. As the decree was only varied the House did not give Costs. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, Arntz. 3. PATTEN V. WEALE.

MIDLAND CIRCUIT.-WARWICK. APRIL '2 THE QUEEN V. MUNTZ AND OTHEfiS. This was a proceedir ' r in the nature of a criminal informa tion against Mr. Muntz,Mr. Parr, Mr. Trow, and Mr. Peirce, for a riot and an affray in the church of St. Martin's, Birming ham. Counsel for the prosecution, the Attorney-General (specially retainel), Mr. Balguy, Mr. Sergeant Goulburn, Mr. N. R. Clarke, and Mr. Whitehurst ; for Mr. Muntz, Mr. Sergeant Wilde (specially retained), Mr. Sergeant Adams, and Mr. E. Clark ; for Mr. Parr, Mr. Unlace). ; and for Trow and Peirce, Mr. Waddington. This case excited the greatest interest in Birmingham. It commenced on Friday morning, the 30th of March, and did not finish until a late hour on Monday night, but the facts may be stated in the narrowest possible compass. The prosecution was instituted by the rector and churchwardens of Saint Martin's, Birmingham, who had applied lo th 2 Court of Queen's Bench for a criminal information against the defendants, which was made absolute, the Cuurt think ing a sufficient case was made out to warrant them in sending it before a jury. The defendant Muntz is a person of reputed wealth at Birmingham, engaged in mercantile and manufacturing concerns to a very great extent in that town. The other defendants arc respectable tradesmen in Birmingham. There had been many disputes for some time previous to the affair in question, respecting the election of Churchwarden, and also upon the subject of Church -rate, and on the 28th of March, 18:37, it being Easter Tuesday, the election for Churchwardens was to take place, and great cx • ertions were made by the heads of the different parties to secure the attendance of their respective friends. Previous to the commencement of the business of the da; , , the Rector, Mr. Moseley, was with his friends, who are generally known as the rate party, in the vestry- room, the door of which was fast ened, to prevent others coming in, and subsequently they ad journed to the Church, when business was commenced. It wrs proposed by one of the party opposed to the Rector's party, to read the minutes of the proceeding vestry of 1836, which was done ; after which Mr. Moseley informed tile meet ing the election for; Churchwarden would proceed under the prineiple of Sturges Bourne's _set, which allows a plurality of votes. Mr. Parr, however, contented it should be detannined by a show of hands. The candidates for the office ware Mr. Brown, a member of the Church of England, proposed frcnn the Rector's pew, and Mr. Winfield, a Dissenter, proposed by the opposite party. -Mr. Parr contending that the election ought to be conducted by show of hands, as lie alleged had hem the usual course pursued, Mr. Moseley, who was in the chair, replied that what he was saying was irrelevant, and that the meeting ought to proceed with the business of the day ; that the election would be based upon Sturges Bourne's Act, which allowed a plurality of votes, none being entitled to vote who were not rated to the poor; and that he had appointed ten persons to take the poll. Mr. Muntz then proposed to elcct another chairman, which he himself put to the meeting on the Rector refusin. , to do so, and ! . .be motion was carried by acclamation. The Rector, however*, declined to vacate, but the person proposed by Mr. Munta was Winfield, his own candidate for the office of churchwardao• An inspection of the parish books was then demanded by . 61. r. Parr, which being refused, Mr. Moseley observing it was n ether the time nor the place, Parr asked the meeting if they 7vould elect him their representative to demand a sight of the bot...k, which appeal was answered by loud cries of " We will, we Parr then left his pew for the purpose of asking to look - at the book, and immediately a scene of confusion arose, occa.' skirled by the rush of individuals towards the Rector's pew, for the purpose of seeing what was going on. Mr. Muntz, who is a gentleman of rather singular appearance, owing to his allowing his beard and mustachios to grow to more than their usual extent, was seen to get upon the backs of the pews brandishing his stick ; but the witnesses for the deknelants swore he always carried his stick with him wherever' he went, and that his purpose in getting on the pews wa.l, only to go and quell the contusion th it had arisen, and many witnesses were called to swear to particular facts as bearing out that view. Truw was seen to attempt to snatch the book, and he had got himself partly into the Rector's pew, when Mr. Gutteridge, a surgeon, who is known in Bir mingham from his proneness to grimace, to rejoice under the cognomen of " Punch," caught him by the legs and threw him over. Some pews were broken and some damage done. but finally the police came in, and order was restored. In short, it was one of those rows which ton frequently, in parish meetings, desecrate the Church, and the only question in the case seemed to be who began it, the one side charging the other as being the authors, and that charge, in turn, char; re criminated upon them. The Learned JUDGE having summed up, the jury retired about half an hour, when they gave as their verdict Muntz and Parr Guilty of an affray only ; and Trow and Pierce Not Guilty generally. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—LivERrooL, APRIL 2. John Kinnear was indicted for forging and uttering a bill of exchange, purporting to be a bill drawn by one J. Watkins, as manager of a certain Company called the Fiintshir© District Banking Company. His LORDSHIP summed up, and the jury returned a verdict of Guilty. The prisoner was sentenced to transportation for life. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. NEW COURT.
